There are a couple of 6-pin connectors that look like the mini-DIN used by the
PS/2 mouse that won't fit. However, Radio Shack sells a PS/2-type of connector
in a blister pack for about $1.50. I used one when replacing the power
connector on a portable JAZ drive. Frankly, I was both pleased and amazed that
they had the things.

For "raw" parts how about http://www.jameco.com/ ?

Yes, PS/2 keyboard/mouse uses the same mini-DIN, but the wiring is
completely different.
Thanks for the URL...
